Online purchases. .

I would not recomend buying anything (especially software) online from A2Z company. Read this review:PCWorld - The Best and Worst Places to Buy Online (http://www.pcworld.com/features/article/0,aid,102522,00.asp)

I used to buy a lot of stuff from BUY.COM, but lately their prices have been high and choices have be low. I just shop around now... :)

I use ResellerRatings.com to check out stores before buying.

I usually stick with Newegg or Plycon (Newegg's cooling equipment is pretty lackluster), and the occasional CoolerGuys or KDComputers. Monarch is good too but a little pricier.

Can't be bothered with Pricewatch. Too many shady retailers, too much time to check the ratings, and too little savings over the aforementioned stores.

Same here. I usually love the service - most of my orders ship the same day and odds are it ships locally.

They used to have great prices, but like you said, lately, some of their prices are too high.

Nowdays it seems like 1 out of every 3 of my orders have items that gets stuck in the "sent to warehouse" phase which ends up being out of stock.
